Definitions

  • Capacity in wireless communication networks is generally limited by the radio spectrum available.
  • the capacity of a wireless communication network therefore, depends on efficient use of the available radio spectrum. Since the radio spectrum allocated to a wireless cellular network is often fixed and because network operators generally desire increase capacity, there are efforts to make more efficient use of the allocated radio spectrum.
  • the allocated radio spectrum is often divided, for example, by time, frequency, and/or space.
  • the allocated radio spectrum may be divided into a subset of frequency channels.
  • the frequency channels are usually spaced far enough apart so that they do not overlap and generate cross-channel interference.
  • each of these channels may be used independently of one another since they use a separate frequency range.
  • some channels may be dedicated to downlink communication and other channels may be dedicated to uplink communication.
  • Radio spectrum may also be divided by time and/or space.
  • An uplink channel for instance, may be divided into distinct time slots.
  • Each user equipment (UE) in the wireless cellular network may be assigned a time slot in which the UE is granted the right to transmit data on the uplink channel.
  • the radio spectrum is said to be time divided.
  • Radio spectrum may also be divided by space by reusing, for example, frequencies in disparate locations. For instance, a plurality of cells in the wireless cellular network may cover non-overlapping areas such that a given frequency may be reused across the plurality of cells without experiencing interference on the given frequency.
  • FIG. 1 depicts a temporal relationship diagram for simultaneous transmit and receive (STR) for a portion of an exemplary downlink radio frame and a portion an exemplary uplink radio frame of a channel.
  • FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of the overall architecture of an exemplary wireless cellular network that uses STR.

  • FIG. 6 depicts an exemplary functional block diagram of a wireless cellular network communication system using STR.
  • FIG. 7 illustrates types of interference that may be encountered in a wireless cellular network using STR.
  • FIG. 8 shows exemplary beam patterns for reducing interference from a BS in a wireless cellular network using STR.
  • FIG. 9 shows a graph comparing uplink co-channel interference in an exemplary wireless cellular network using STR.

Due to STR at BSs, neighboring BSs' downlink (DL) signals interfere with desired uplink (UL) signal at a home BS. This is called BS-BS interference and may be severe.
  • the BS-to-BS channel interference may be closer to line- of-sight (LoS) with much lower path loss.

Abstract

La présente invention porte sur une technologie d'émission et de réception simultanées. Une émission de liaison descendante et un faisceau de réception de liaison montante sont formés au niveau d'une station de base (BS) ayant un diagramme de faisceau avec des zéros prédéterminés. Les zéros prédéterminés sont formés sur des angles d'élévation prédéterminés pour réduire un brouillage avec une BS proche. Une émission et une réception se produisent simultanément en utilisant le diagramme de faisceau de la BS.
